START WHERE YOU ARE
Every journey begins with a conversatioN.
Returning to work can feel like a big step, especially if you've been away from employment for some time or are balancing caregiving responsibilities alongside everything else.
You don't need to have everything figured out before reaching out.
Whether you're exploring your options, building your confidence or preparing for work, we'll meet you where you are and help you discover the next step that's right for you.
Your Journey with DOT
Every woman's journey is different.
Some women move through every stage. Others may only need support at one or two points along the way. Together, we'll explore what makes sense for you.

One conversation can make a difference
Reach Out
Your journey begins with getting in touch through your Social Worker or Social Service Officer. We'll take time to understand your goals, strengths, and circumstances before recommending the support that's most relevant for you.
You'll begin with:
A conversation about your goals
Understanding your current circumstances
A personalised recommendation for your next step





Support doesn't end when work begins.
Continue Moving Forward
Starting a new job is an important milestone — but it's not the end of your journey.
As you settle into employment, you may continue to access encouragement, practical guidance, and connections within the DOT community — including joining DOT Alumni for ongoing peer and community support, and opportunities to volunteer and give back to women just starting out on their own journeys.
Progress happens one step at a time.
